Treatment for Missing Teeth with Basal Implants

Replace missing teeth
with basal implants

Basal dental implants are the best solution for patients with missing teeth and severe bone loss. Basal implants avoid additional procedures like bone grafting and sinus lift.

Basal dental implants give back to patients who have been edentulous for several years a full set of teeth to eat normally and smile with confidence.

What is edentulism?

Missing teeth and bone atrophy.

Edentulism is missing teeth. It can be partial or total. Tooth loss leads to the resorption of the soft gum tissue that holds the tooth in place. The gums recede. This process of gum resorption takes 18 months. It is called bone atrophy. The volume of this cancellous bone decreases in height and density.

Treatment of Edentulism with Basal Dental Implants

How do basal implants treat edentulous patients with severe bone atrophy?

Basal implantology is the best solution for treating total or partial edentulism. Basal implants restore the patient’s dentition with a complete set of teeth. They recreate the natural functionality of the mouth to chew normally with the molars.

Basal dental implants are the best solution because they are longer and fixed in the cortical bone. It is hard bone that is unaffected by gum resorption. It avoids the need to restore soft gum tissue with bone grafting.

Tooth Loss

How do basal implants replace missing teeth?

Basal implants can replace the missing teeth of patients who have been edentulous for several years. Basal dental implants are fixed into the hard cortical bone which does not disappear after tooth loss. The basal implants are placed along the entire length of the jaw to support a full dental bridge. As a result the patient recovers a full set of teeth to live normally.

Bone Loss

How do basal implants compensate for bone atrophy?

The loss of teeth, edentulism, causes bone loss. The soft cancellous bone of the gums that holds the teeth recedes after tooth loss. The soft bone disappears over a period of 18 months. All that remains is the cortical bone which is the deeper layer of jaw bone. Basal dental implants are longer and fixed into this deep cortical bone that is hard. It is a good base for dental implants. There is no dependency on the soft cancellous bone of the gums like conventional implants. So, there is no need for a bone graft or a sinus lift.

Reverse Bite

How do basal implants correct a reversed dental occlusion?

A reverse bite is also called reversed occlusion or underbite in orthodontics is the result of tooth loss especially at the back of the jaws. 

Tooth loss leads to receding gums and a remodeling of the jaw bone. The jaws become deformed. The upper jaw shrinks in volume whilst the lower jaw widens. As a result the lower jaw positions itself in front of the upper jaw creating the reverse bite. The remodeling process is associated with a loss of height of the jaws. 

In most cases, basal implants can correct the reverse bite. A good implantologist will be able to correct the occlusion and use the length of basal implants to create a good contact between the 2 jaws. As a result, the patient can chew normally.

The advantages of basal dental implants

What are the benefits of basal implants to replace missing teeth?

Basal dental implants have been especially designed to replace missing teeth for patients that suffer from severe bone loss. Basal implantology has been developed for the full dental restoration of edentulous patients with severe bone atrophy.

Basal implants do not require bone grafting or sinus lift. Basal implantology is the most effective solution to restore the functionality of the mouth to enable normal mastication.

The disadvantages of conventional dental implants

What are the limitations of conventional implants for patients with missing teeth?

Conventional implants are too short, and are placed in the spongy cancellous bone that naturally resorbs after tooth loss. In conventional implantology bone grafting and sinus lift are necessary to compensate for the fact that traditional implants are too short. In basal implantology, basal implants are longer and placed directly into cortical bone, which is unaffected by the resorption of the soft cancellous bone.

Limitations of the All on 4 system

What are the problems of the All on 4 system to treat edentulism?

The All on 4 and All on 6 restorative systems are not a good solution for patients who have missing teeth and suffer from severe bone loss. The All on 4 system can only effectively restore the front teeth. But, it cannot restore the back teeth that are used for mastication. In conventional implantology traditional implants are too short to replace the molars. 

As an option to compensate for the severe bone loss under the sinuses conventional dentists recommend zygomatic dental implants that pass through the sinuses. But these zygomatic implants have risks and disadvantages. They can provoke chronic sinusitis,

Alternatives to dental implants

What are the alternatives to dental implants for treating missing teeth?

In the cases of total edentulism, it is difficult to replace missing without basal implants. The only alternative is to extract all the teeth and fit removable prostheses that are fixed with glue. Over time, the bone holding the removable prosthesis resorbs and becomes too thin to hold the prosthesis, even with a lot of glue. Then the only option is basal implantology.

How is basal dental implantation performed?

How do dentists place basal dental implants for patients with missing teeth?

In basal implantology, missing teeth are replaced by basal dental implants fixed along the entire length of the jaw. Behind the sinuses, the implant dentist places pterygoid dental implants to replace the missing molars. The dentist can thus recreate the natural functionality of the mouth for the patient to chew normally.

The basal implantation is performed in one visit of 3 to 5 days. The implantologist will extract the teeth that are loose. Some dentists prefer to keep teeth that are stable. They are filed to support the prosthesis. Where teeth are missing, the dentist adds basal implants along the entire length of the jaw to create anchors for the dental bridge.

Typically, for totally edentulous patients the implant dentist places at least 10 basal dental implants on the upper jaw and 8 basal implants on the lower jaw to replace all the missing teeth. The dentist then fixes a full bridge of 12 to 14 crowns on each jaw.

How long does a full dental restoration with basal dental implants take?

Basal dental implants are immediate-loading. The dental restoration requires 1 visit that takes only 3 to 5 days.

Basal dental implants
for smokers

Basal dental implants are the only long-term solution for smokers. The heat of cigarettes damages the soft gum tissue that retracts. But, basal implants are fixed deeper into the hard cortical bone that does not recede.


Basal dental implants
for diabetes

Basal dental implants are recommended for patients who are diabetic because they are integrated into the cortical bone that is not affected by the effects of diabetes on soft gum tissue.
